Qiu Tenghua: Do not want Ocean Park to be the first victim of the epidemic

Qiu Tenghua also played a "humanity card" for the park, saying that Ocean Park is not a business. Hong Kong people have feelings for the park because the park can make money, and the park also provides 2,000 full-time jobs. The government does not want Ocean Park to be the first victim in the epidemic, which will make the brands established over the years go to waste.

In addition, the park's vice chairman Liu Mingwei once said that this proposed funding is already the most feasible way to save the ocean park. If the park closes, it is roughly estimated that the expenditure will need 10 billion yuan to relocate animals and sack 2,000 employees, and repay the loan. .

He also removed $ 13 million from the funding application as a request for the establishment of a review team and processed it with existing resources.

At the beginning of last week, Liu Mingwei also publicly expressed his opposition to the politicization of the future of the park. "(If) doing a" scramble "textbook for the demonstration and sacrificing a demonstration role, sacrificing 2,000 positions, 7,500 animals, and collective memories of many people, I think this system is not worth it. "He also mentioned that the subsequent review could have" unlimited possibilities. "The government's" relaxation "of the regulations directly affects whether the park will need to apply for public funds in the future.
